fair enough we've done jobs in the 4-3-3 - 4-5-1 systems but yesterday backfired, so now surely we will revert back to 4-4-2 and trust our own ability ?
anderson has for me got to be in this system, we need to play with no fear like we did when we went to anfield and the emirates remeber anyone ? for as good as scholes is he isnt best for the 4-4-2 hargreaves and anderson in the middle play with two wingers with tevez and rooney playing up frontt with the usuall back four !

FOLLOW, FOLLOW, FOLLOW !! lets get behind the lads :D :rolleyes: to much negativity surrounding the forum and im worried that it might get into ot when we play barca, we cannot afford this lets be positive what doya think guys

To me it really depends where and who we are playing...if its at home then yeah 4-4-2 all the way but if its against a team who plays a similar formation with some influential centre mids like Pool then a 4-5-1 is good because the game will be won in the centre mid and having 3 will do us good.
I agree... Back to 4-4-2.. Or maybe try 4-3-2-1

Haha.. Im Joking.. :p

Can I remind you this is a Manchester United football forum

Where people can come and discuss everything concerning United
and other footballing matters.

If they read comments like this one they will think we are insane !!!

If you have nothing sensible to say in a thread then move along.

There is not a need for you to post in EVERY thread.

We don't have time to go round deleting comments like this -
only last week 2 of the guys from the Super Mod team spent hours
deleting over 500 inane posts !!!

It's a lot easier for me to delete the source of these posts !!!

I hope we attack from the off on tuesday because I for one don't want to go out at this stage, if we did lose that could back fire on us.

Go with 442 and put balls in the box and test the goalkeeper and with over 75,000 roaring the team on, we should win.

you want to ban me for ever thanks
When did I say that ?

We've had quite a lot of this recently :eek:

People read things that are not actually there.

I said there were 500 posts removed and it
would be easier to remove the source of these
posts. No names here sorry.

Also, some advice ... ;)

Is there really a need to reproduce rather
large posts in quotes - to reply with one
line ?

Most definitely not. It makes it a terrible mess
here. With 3 posts per page because all the
pages are filled with quotes.

Now, let's keep to the subject of the thread
shall we, thanks ... :)

What has the formation got to do with Glazer?

Stop trying to be someone your not, by refering everything to Glazer ffs.

4-4-2 is my prefered formation, but 4-5-1 does work when it needs to. We have sort of had to use 4-5-1 with only 2 strikers. I would accept if we played 4-5-1 on Tuesday tbh.

not 1 of your posts i have ever read makes sense.
all you do is try and bump up your post count!

back on topic, anything but 451 will do me but i think 442 and 433 definately suit our attacking play more.
4-4-2 =
vds
hargo rio vidic evra
ronaldo scholes carrick anderson

i couldnt agree more lol can never unerstand what he's saying :confused:
4-5-1 is a defensive formation while 4-4-2 is a more attacking formation

I agree.

However, I don't feel there is much a difference between 4-5-1 and 4-3-3. On the attack it's the latter, and when the team goes defensive, it leaves 1 up top with the 2 wingers defending making it 4-5-1.
4-5-1 or 4-3-3 are ok formations and i think he will play something like that roney up top and ronaldo and nani eitehr side
the only thing that matters is how we change the defence into attack
and not giving the ball away in silly situations and using possion well

You read my mind. Right now we need energy , pace , fearlessness and courage. The time has come for United to stop impersonating other teams and start doing what they do best with players in positions they like (ie 4-4-2). Watching them recently has been like watching a team trying to do a limp impression of Man U. It's like watching England under Sven. I agree with you but I also might be tempted to play a team as close as poss. to the roma 7-1 game and say " go and do it again". My worry is that you can't just turn on the form like that after so much negativity. I do hope they don't just sit back and watch Barca play pretty triangles like we did against Arsenal and then only light the fireworks at 0-1. So to finish positive ---Cmon --let's do em proper!!
I will respect whatever formation that SAF plays tomorrow... I believe he wants to win more then we do... His the tactician guys...

Does it really matters??? We win some we lose some and obviously I know we lost on some stupid decision by the linesman but we are still on top... 4-5-1 systems did not backfired...

I watched the Chelsea game with fellow Singaporeans last weekend... I'm dissapointed that we lost but was even dissapointed by those fans who only supported United because they win... That's not really what a true fan behaviour... We have to take it... To me personally I always put on my Manchester United Jersey the next day if they lost the day before, cause I'm still pround of them... So in last... Whatever the formations is, we play to win... We shall prevail...
id for us to go back to 4-4-2 but i dont think we will unles we get a striker who can stay up there and doesnt come back often like rooney oy tevez...we need someone like huntelaar to feed on the long balls forward and be up there in counter attacks......
with rooney we have a kind of formation which is like 4-6-0 with not strikers and 6 mids as rooney tends to come and help the midfield.........
